I could replace the drive but the only spare I have lying around is an 80 gig Seagate(ST380021A) and the drives in the server are 61 gig Maxtors(5T060H6). Would mixing that Seagate cause problems? I've read around that mixing and matching is not recomended.

Mixing is not a good idea for the long haul, but I would throw it in just to see what happens. If it gets the unit back on its feet, I would then back up all the data and THROW AWAY all of the maxtor drives in the unit. Maxtor drives have a very high rate of failure, as you are finding out. Replace them with some 120GB seagates and you have a bigger snap server with more reliable dives in it.

No idea. Again, as I said above, this doesn't sound like a simple drive failure issue. Have you powered down and checked to make sure that all of the connections inside the snap are tight? It might be worth checking.
